I clicked on the thread by reflex when I saw "Sakura Taisen" and then remembered that this game is in English now too. How bad is the time investment, though? Is it about average for mobile games where you blow a bunch of stamina for about a total of one hour a day in a few bursts?

That's a little tough to answer. While early game may seem like that once you get a few ranks, AP restoration items are farmable. This means you can potentially grind once you have a decent stockpile of 1/2 Elixirs, recommended for some events especially Guild Wars. Add to the fact that you can restore AP and BP once per day by advertising to Twitter, you tend to not really be hard up for AP and start pacing yourself more.

AP restores at 1 per 5 minutes. BP/EP restores at 1 per 20 min and is used to join in other people's raids.

AP aside, there is a reason why some people call this Grindblue Fantasy. It's mainly because you're grinding towards endgame builds like you would in any MMO.




Welcome to Grindblue Fantasy. Enjoy your stay.

Is there a guild/crew free space left??? I want to join a crew here. Currently I am beginning at the game here, but I will try to lvl up fast as I can.

There's one spot left in the crew that I'm in, if you're still looking for one. Having LINE is a must though. If you're still interested you can add agg-poet on LINE and ask for a spot.

Almost fully uncapped Erica right when I got her, too bad I'm short one rainbow prism. I needed a healer and most of my equipment is light anyways so this is perfect for me.
Getting into a mech during their CA is hilarious because I get to watch two death animations.

Finally ran a maniac without using elixirs. Might have gotten lucky at some points.

I already play PC MMOs so while the collabs are cool, I should probably give this one a pass. Thanks for the info!

Kamui just seems like one of the easiest maniacs, tbh. I'm almost considering a bum-rush team.

That and your pool seems pretty well filled out :v

Got into my first Order Grande raid...... is it bad that a mobile game got me pumped up?

I actually like GBF better than FFRK mainly because I feel like there's more character variety in terms of party builds and skills. Music and core gameplay mechanics are good too.

Just a shame it is the bane we call mobage.

If playing on a computer, you could!  Go to the song you wanna listen to on Youtube(if that's where you looked it up), type "repeat" after "youtube" in the URL, thne turn off the sound on the actual app.

Instant looping BGM of your choice no matter what!

.......wow......

Will our crew be able to manage with him?

Will i be able to assist ?

Are there lyrics online ?

What happened to the Sky Journey and Arcana summon stuff from TGS last year?

That hasn?t been forgotten. Apparently it?s something HRT and FKHR have been talking about a lot recently. It?s going to be a progressive thing and HRT wants it to be implemented before the anime airs (whenever that is).

Quote
Will our crew be able to manage with him?
It's a world raid, so we won't have to.

Quote
Will i be able to assist ?
Buffs, heals, damage cuts, etc, are always useful. Just communicate. (Btw, I need more GBF people in palringo.)

I have no idea.

I'm not a fan of another version of Line that has low functionality and does not really offer much benefit over any other messaging system.

I'll consider it all the same, bust for real having me download another god damn messenger to communicate is not a plus tbh.

I understand. It's just that's where the main guild is. Though I'll see if I can convince the people who joined GBF there to use Line instead. I suspect we use the place because of the imagebot that provides some hilarity to the chat among other things.

I realize it's a hassle which is why I'm not making it mandatory, so don't if that's still the feeling.

Or, um, Discord. Which has bots, too. And it isn't slow.

* Jq1790 draws less than 100 times from the GW token draw

* Jq1790 looks at Seven-Star Sword in his possession

I think I just blew a lot of GBF luck for a while...

Nah. Luck doesn't drain from event gacha. It does for legend draws though.
